Under the mask, lessons from Anaesthetist Dr Conrad Macrokanis
Surgery isn’t a Netflix nap. It’s a high‑stakes team effort where your anaesthetist runs the room, balances risk, and quietly steers you from fear to recovery.

Conrad traces a path from rural retrievals to Brisbane theatres, revealing how prevention often lives in a bubble while most patients arrive in crisis. He breaks down...

Sport Psychology: Mastering Change And Mindset With Tama Barry

We sit down with Tama Barry — former principal dancer turned sport and exercise psychologist — to map the messy terrain between certainty and growth, and how language, values, and attention shape every outcome you care about.

We’re joined by sports dietitian Hanah Mills for a candid, practical tour of performance nutrition that ditches extremes and focuses on what actually moves the needle—energy availability, smart carb timing, and habits you can live with.

Ever felt “stuck in the mud” mid-run or trapped by a watch that insists you’re in zone two while your lungs disagree?

Why Breathwork is The Missing Link In Your Training
Most people think recovery is an ice bath or a day off. We make the case that the most accessible recovery tool is already with you: a diaphragm-led breath that can steady your heart, calm your nervous system, and teach your body to move better under load. We break down how breathing sits at the crossroads of mechanics and neurology. You’ll learn why shallow, chesty breaths keep you wired, why longer exhales can lower heart rate and lift HRV, and how rib cage motion links to spinal loading i...

The Hierarchy of Fitness Needs
Most training advice skips the unsexy steps and sprints straight to sweat. We flip the script with a clear, usable hierarchy that protects your body, multiplies your gains, and keeps you training for years: robustness first, strength second, aerobic third, and anaerobic last. You’ll hear why you can’t build performance on dysfunction, how simple daily activation changes your ceiling, and where strength slots in to help joints share load instead of take the hit. We walk through real examples—...
